Outside of Time

"It's too difficult for the physical body to forcefully enter thousands of meters of mud. Even with the blessing of my current state, it will still be like this."

"The most important thing is that I can reverse time and come back through the sundial. There is always a limit to this matter, and if it unfolds too often, it will be shattered."

"The failure of catching the moon in the well is partly due to the interference of the gray fog. Another bigger reason may be that... the distance is too far, and the technique of catching the moon in the well cannot directly have an effect."

"To sum up the above, if there is a way to form a channel in the mud that runs thousands of feet and connects it with the space where the skull is, then we can start fishing for the moon again..."

Xu Qing's eyes revealed that if this method could be successful, then for him, while reducing his own risk, it would also increase the chance of success.

"This passage doesn't need to be too big. A crack or even a small hole will do."

Xu Qing lowered his head and stared at the mud beneath him, one method after another came to mind.

But the silt itself was strange and there was gray mist, so he analyzed and abandoned all these methods, until finally, Xu Qing made a decisive decision and took out an object with the wave of his hand.

That's a brown flame!

It is the divine fire-like thing formed by Xiaoying after devouring the restricted area and all things.

This fire is terrifying and cannot be tolerated in the world. When it appears in the outside world, it will cause thunder to fall in an attempt to extinguish it.

In the Jiuli Forbidden City, the Dao of Heaven was also excluded, so its appearance did not cause thunder. However, the gray mist around it seemed to be stimulated and began to stir violently.

Vaguely, countless whispers gathered together again, forming a roar that spread in all directions.

At the same time, the mist was rolling, roaring towards Xu Qing, overwhelming the smoke ring, trying to rush in and extinguish the flames.

It's as if they are incompatible with each other.

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, and he pointed at the bronze incense burner to speed up its consumption and emit more smoke rings to block the violent fog around him.

"The gray fog here reacts like this..."

Xu Qing was thoughtful, looked down at the mud again, and then looked at the flames.

He only has three such flames.

One was used on Jidongzi, and now there are two left.

"try it!"

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and without hesitation, he waved the brown flame and landed it on the mud on the ground. The moment it touched, the mud melted visibly like snowflakes meeting hot water!

The flames fell extremely smoothly and sank all the way.

Wherever he passed, the silt continued to melt. At the same time, the gray mist surrounding Xu Qing's smoke ring and the gray mist floating in the silt were immediately attracted, blended into the silt from all directions, and went straight towards the flames.

A momentary touch is like extinguishing a fire, covering it and trying to extinguish it.

It's just that the flames were amazing. Even though there were signs of being extinguished, the speed of its sinking did not change. All the mud that came into contact with it melted rapidly.

One hundred feet, three hundred feet, five hundred feet, seven hundred feet...

More fog came.

This process started over and over again, and the repulsive force emitted from the silt was extremely huge, even surpassing that of Xu Qing and Xiaoying's previous sinking.

As a result, the brown flame became dimmer and dimmer, but the power contained within it still supported it and penetrated thousands of feet!

But as it penetrates, the mud is healing rapidly and getting smaller and smaller.

Finally, the flames passed through the silt layer and reached the cave where Xiaoying had seen the scene before.

The moment it appeared, the gray mist contained in the cave suddenly erupted and rolled in quickly.

Endless gray mist followed one after another, and the brown flames were extinguished in an instant and dissipated.

As it dispersed, the silt that it sank and melted healed instantly.

Seeing this scene, Xu Qing looked solemn.

During this period, he thought about taking out the last flame, and also thought about spreading out the well to catch the moon, but after all, it was not safe and there were few opportunities, so he finally chose to wait and see.

Treat this time as a test.

The answer is now available.

"One flame is not enough, but it lacks follow-up, so it is difficult to hold on for too long, and it will be extinguished by the gray fog."

"In addition, it is difficult for this melted silt to continue to exist."

"Now that I have repaired it, I can still expand it once in a short period of time, but if I want to expand it a second time, I still need some recovery time in my soul."

Xu Qing pondered, and began to think about how to deal with these two observed points.

After a moment, he glanced at the mud.

I have the answer to how to slow down the healing of silt after it melts.

"The power of the sundial freezes it!"

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. After experiencing the reversal of time under the mud, he was certain that it could be realized, so now there was only one last question left.

"How to make the fire burn brighter and brighter!"

Xu Qing raised his head and looked at the incense burner, and took out a piece of red mother's flesh and blood with a wave of his hand.

"The blood and flesh of the red mother can provide combustion for the incense burner, so theoretically it can also bless the brown flames..."

Thinking of this, Xu Qing took a deep breath, took out the third brown flame, controlled the flame, and slowly approached the red mother's flesh and blood.

During this process, Xu Qing's expression was extremely solemn.

This is his last hope. Once he fails, Xu Qing has no other choice but to try once and explode all the flesh and blood of the Red Mother to see if he can break out of the Jiuli Restriction.

So, under his full attention, the flames and the flesh and blood of the red mother came into contact.

At the moment of contact, Xu Qing was also prepared for an accident, but luck seemed to have finally favored him this time after a series of reverses.

The moment the Red Mother's flesh and blood came into contact with the flames, a sizzling sound echoed, and the Red Mother's flesh and blood showed signs of burning and melting.

And the brown flame did not go out, but under the continuous burning, the signs of the red mother's flesh and blood slowly melting became more and more obvious.

Finally, a drop of golden oil-like liquid melted out of the red mother's flesh and blood.

This oil was crystal clear, and the moment it appeared, it exuded a strong divine aura, and even rippled outward, causing the surrounding gray fog to billow again.

Xu Qing was just about to take away the drop of golden liquid, but after thinking about it, he chose to continue to control the brown flames to burn. Soon, the drop of melted golden liquid fell down and dripped on the mud after continuous accumulation. on the ground.

The next moment, the mud melted rapidly just like when the fire touched it before, causing the drop of golden liquid to sink downwards.

Seeing this, Xu Qing perked up. Although there were some deviations from his plan, the direction was consistent, so he did not hesitate and controlled the flames to burn with all his strength.

Soon, when the first drop of golden liquid sank to hundreds of feet, was shrouded in gray mist and was about to dissipate, and when the small hole running through it was about to heal, the second drop of golden liquid fell!

In the same position, with the same small hole, this second drop of golden liquid was as powerful as a bamboo, breaking all the healing in an instant, and merged with the first drop of liquid that was about to dissipate hundreds of feet away, adding to its subsequent power.

The ground shook.

The golden liquid that was hundreds of feet below, with help, emitted a stronger divine aura, melted and formed again, directly reaching a depth of seven hundred feet.

Then the third drop, the fourth drop, and the fifth drop of golden liquid fell in the same way.

Continuously opening up and converging, it finally penetrated the thousands of feet of mud layer, forming a small hole connecting the upper and lower parts.

The moment the hollow hole appeared, Xu Qing made a finger with his left hand, and suddenly a sundial appeared behind him. The power of freezing instantly exploded and spread along the hole, making the healing of this passage a reality. pause.

Taking advantage of this time, Xu Qing's eyes showed madness, his cultivation and divine source exploded all at once, and the fourth divine state was formed in an instant. He made a secret with his hands and pressed towards the small hole.

This world of heaven and earth can be regarded as a well.

In an instant, the vast power spread out in front of Xu Qing, ripples appeared all around, and everything became the surface of well water.

Through this hollow hole, it is connected to the cave thousands of feet below, and everything inside is reflected on the water.

This time, although it was still not particularly clear, it was much better than before. At least... the skull closest to the small hole really came into Xu Qing's eyes.

It's just that Xu Qing's behavior is still like a mayfly shaking a tree. Although he used some methods to open the channel, the golden oil continued to fall, and the sundial freeze was also blessed.

But it was still unstable after all. At this moment, cracks appeared under the click of the sundial, and the gray fog in the cave rushed in like a sea, threatening to completely submerge the passage.

At the critical moment, Xu Qing raised his right hand and fished hard at the skull reflected in the water in front of him!

Xu Qing's whole body trembled when he fished it out, and the tenacity emanating from it made it impossible for him to fish it out, and it even spurted out blood.

Sundial, more cracks.

The gray fog is getting thicker and thicker.

The channel is about to close.

Xu Qing's eyes were filled with blood, he gritted his teeth and fished it out again at any cost!

This time, his whole body roared, tearing wounds instantly appeared on his body, blood spread out from his body, his whole body seemed to collapse, and he let out a low roar.

Finally, with his trembling right hand, he fished out a puddle of water from the water.

Reflected in the water traces is a skull!

The moment it was fished out, Xu Qing's sundial couldn't hold up and had to disperse, and countless mist rushed into the passage. No matter how golden liquid fell, it couldn't be stopped, and it healed instantly.

Xu Qing spurted out blood again. He was seriously injured all over his body, and even his vision was blurry, but he was excited inside and looked down at his broken right hand.

But at this glance, Xu Qing's expression changed.

The skull reflected in the water mark on his right hand was blurring rapidly, and seemed to be dissipating soon.

He couldn't truly retain it, and he couldn't turn it from virtual to real!

At the critical moment, Xu Qing was anxious. Seeing that the shadow of the skull in the water was about to completely dissipate, his eyes showed madness. He opened his mouth and swallowed the water in his palm and the reflection in it with one suction. , and at the same time activate his own purple crystal.

The moment he entered, Xu Qing's body roared, and a force of self-destruction rose uncontrollably inside. It was about to explode. Purple light shone on his chest, covering his whole body, and the power of sealing followed.

At the same time, a vicissitudes of voice, seemingly separated by endless years, echoed in Xu Qing's mind with reluctance and bitterness.

"Father witch, Zi Li, you are ashamed of my Xuantian witch clan!"
